AN ASSEMBLED PAIR OF SAMSON SÈVRES-STYLE BISQUE JARDINIÈRES LATE 19TH CENTURY

each molded with a continuous band of dancing putti holding hands entwined by a garland below a pale-blue ground border with four molded panels of tritons flanking a classical urn alternating with four large gilt ram's heads applied at the rim, pseudo interlaced Sèvres L's marks in blue. Some minor chips, wear to gilding, and restoration

The jardinière with the gilt foot: both horns of one ram's head have been restored back on; all the masks have filled firing cracks where they join the body. Otherwise both are in good condition.
